1. Engagement

@yamallaminee

During UEFA Euro 2024, Lamine’s TikTok videos received 170 million views

Question

If 10% of the viewers liked the videos and 2% commented, how many likes and comments did he receive?

*Solution
- Likes: \(170,000,000 \times 0.1 = 17,000,000\).
- Comments: \(170,000,000 \times 0.02 = 3,400,000\).

2. Growth

– If Lamine’s social media following grew by 25% after the tournament, and he had 10 million followers before, how many followers does he have now?

- Solution:
- Growth: \(10,000,000 \times 0.25 = 2,500,000\).
- Total: \(10,000,000 + 2,500,000 = 12,500,000\).
